Old Mule Learns New Tricks

I never participated in edited collections with crowds of star academics, so I had no idea how the process works. There are six rounds of corrections and review. Six! It’s nothing like the “once you are accepted, you are done” process in place at academic journals. I will be working on these articles until the end of April.

On the positive side, the editors are driving me like a stubborn old mule, so the articles will turn out great. These will definitely be the best pieces I will have written so far. My biggest problem is that I never drive myself until the very end. I decide I’m done before I’m really done. And these editors will not let me do that.
